12 Best American Restaurants in Deadwood

“Recently celebrated a birthday at Jake’s with a party of 15. All 15 guests were impressed by the atmosphere and the food. My husband and I first heard of Jake’s fine dining during a bourbon tasting in deadwood and came across Jake’s old fashioned. We thought this was a perfect opportunity to check out the actual restaurant and of course enjoy another Jake’s old fashion. It definitely held up to our expectations. We look forward to visiting again.“

“Food was fine. I had the smash burger and the wife had the smoked Mac & cheese. Atmosphere was excellent, my burger was excellent, everything we wanted to try had jalapeños to it. We don’t do hot lol. All was fine the Mac was spicy also, but good.“

“We stayed at Mystic Hills Hideaway for 2 1/2 weeks (before Sturgis Rally). We enjoyed our stay. We had a great site. Shawn the owner was awesome… so friendly. We rented UTV & Shawn gave us great advice on where to go…Moonshine Gulch Saloon! Kristie in the Lodge restaurant was awesome and gave us advice on how to use backroads to visit places. Food was delicious… Shawn knows how smoke the meat for ‘ pulled pork and prime rib’!Campground is close to all the great places to visit. And we got to watch the cows roaming. We will definitely go back.“

“Such a great place!!! The views are amazing. The restaurant had very good food and great service. I feel like I am at a resort.“

“The food quality and obvious top notch attention to detail and care that the staff take make this my go to spot in Deadwood. You have to give this place a try if you stop through town!“

“We were in Saturday for a late birthday lunch and it was absolutely perfect! The food was phenomenal, everyone in our group loved what they ordered, but beyond that our server Austin was amazing. We were a little rowdy and he was great at putting up with our nonsense and was so much fun but also very knowledgeable and made great food recommendations. I had a burger that Austin recommended and it was delicious! We also really enjoyed the bar tender too but unfortunately I didn’t get her name. Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely be back!“

“I travel alot, and coming to Deadwood, I Highly recommend the Gulch. Rooms are VERY Clean, I think the Bed is better than my own at home, and they have FREE BREAKFAST! The Bonus is , I won 2000$ last time, and won 500 just walking to my room. It's not on the Strip, but WOW, Impressed.“

“😀Great food, quick service and awesome servers. I thought it was comical that they serve your food on paper plates. But, honestly, one of the best chicken fried steaks I have ever had. Our waitress was friendly and funny. She made our experience even more enjoyable. Cute little cafe that was once a service station.“

“I had a Chicken Fried Steak with the Sausage Gravy instead of the normal Gravy and I tell you what, it was the best Chicken Fried Steak and Sausage Gravy I've ever had. I tried a biscuit to see how the biscuits and gravy would be fir breakfast there. The biscuit was a swing and a miss in my opinion. I'm sure others love it, but I'd rather have one of the pre-made ones from Sysco or GFS or the like.
Worth the money overall.“

“Great place on the Deadwood strip. Lovely sports bar with typical but serviceable food. Service was fantastic. They have huge draft beers.
We highly recommend the huckleberry mule, kurvball bbq Bloody Mary, and the pumpkin pie pudding shots.“

“Phenomenal food combined with service to match. Love this place!“

“Terrible hostess. We're told there was only high-top seating left as we were seated walked by numerous booths that were open. No one came to serve us. we left after 10 minutes of silence, while the hostess was on her phone outside of the kitchen. Boy, was she shocked when we picked up our things and left. Motto "Everyone's welcome" was by the far the biggest lie that was told yesterday. extremely disappointed. -5/10“
